United Air Lines Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is part of a corporate family that includes United Airlines Holdings, Inc., which is responsible for cascading emissions data and climate commitments. As of now, United Air Lines Inc. has not publicly disclosed any specific reduction targets or achievements related to carbon emissions. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments. The climate commitments and initiatives of United Air Lines Inc. are inherited from its parent company, United Airlines Holdings, Inc. This includes participation in various climate initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), both of which are cascaded from the parent organisation. However, specific targets or metrics from these initiatives have not been detailed. In summary, while United Air Lines Inc. is linked to broader climate initiatives through its parent company, it currently lacks specific emissions data and reduction targets. The company’s future climate strategy may evolve as it aligns more closely with industry standards and practices.
